About the Artist

Robert Hager, a native of Brooklyn, New York, was educated in both the graphic arts and fine arts. He attended the New York School of Graphic Arts and the School of Visual Arts in New York City. At SVA, along with other instructors, Robert was trained under the guidance of the notable illustrator Burne Hogarth. Mr. Hogarth's repertoire of Illustrations and books has been a guiding light for many artists. Robert's experience in graphic arts helped to hone his proficiency in color balance and values, which is reflected in the unique style of his many paintings.
